What can Beauty Salon Insurance cover?

Beauty salon insurance offers a package of protection that allows you to cover multiple risks on a single policy*. It can be tailored to your needs and typically covers risks such as:

Glass Cover

Replacement service for broken windows and any interior or exterior glass such as mirrors, display cases, and sinks

Goods in Transit

If you deliver goods to your customers, then goods in transit insurance is a good policy element to have in place.  This will protect the stock you are travelling with from theft, loss, or damage while you, or your drivers and their deliveries, are on the road

Personal Accident

This will protect you should someone be involved in an accident at work.  It will pay out in the event of death, bodily injury, or disablement.  The compensation provided can pay for temporary staff or cover the overtime cost for other team members

Business Interruption

If something catastrophic happened to your business – such as a fire or flood – and your premises is forced to close for a while, could you cope? With no money coming in and bills needing to paying, would you be able to keep putting food on your table while not doing so for your customers? Business interruption cover provides you with an income while your business is out of action, providing much-needed peace of mind in a time of stress

Commercial buildings cover

Do you own the building in which your business operates?  If so, you’ll need commercial buildings insurance to protect your bricks and mortar. Buildings insurance protects you from the cost of repairing or rebuilding your building if it’s damaged by risks such as floods, fires, vandalism, or explosion.

Stock Cover

If you run a shop, pub or restaurant, distributor, or manufacturing plant, you’ll want stock cover to protect your goods – particularly if your stock is expensive items like technology, art, or alcohol or is frozen meat, fresh veg, or anything in between.  Stock cover assists with the costs of replacing or repairing your inventory if it’s damaged, lost, or stolen. Stock cover protects your supplies in the event of storm damage, flood, fire, or theft—a crucial policy element given how expensive your stock can be

Treatment Risk

Safeguards you against any claims should a treatment cause injury or material damage to a client. Treatment risk insurance is an extension of your public liability cover and protects you and your business against claims. As a beauty professional, treatments are likely to be a routine part of your day, so having cover in place is a wise move

Product liability

Did you know that if the products you use, recommend, or sell cause problems, you can be liable for damages? Products are central to your business, and if something goes wrong, you can be liable for claims and compensation.  Should this happen to you, product liability insurance covers the costs of any compensation you are made to pay, together with the legal fees

Employers’ liability

This is a legal requirement if you employ people. It provides cover in the event of your employee injuring themselves or if their property is damaged while at work. The law says that if you employ at least one person, you must have employers’ liability insurance (sometimes called ‘E.L. insurance’) to protect your employees in case they are injured or become ill as a result of working for you. Your policy must:

  • Cover you for at least £5 million
  • Be with an authorised insurer
  • And employers must provide a safe working environment

Public Liability

Provides cover should a member of the public injure themselves or if their property is damaged while you are working.  It covers the cost of claims made by members of the public for incidents that occur in connection to your business’s activities, for example if they slip on the floor and decide to sue you, you’ll be covered.
